The most positive thing about the Porzingis trade is that the Mavs hierarchy seemed to finally understand that you need at least TWO All-Stars (more likely three) to win a championship in the new NBA. Apparently Porzingis is not the 2nd star. If it wasn´t for the injuries, he could possibly be the 3rd star.
Long story short, I hope the new GM centers his whole plan around signing that second star (and third star) in free agency or building up the assets required to trade for him.
And in no version of this players like Spencer Dinwiddie have a place.
Hey let me ask you this: Anyone ask for Spencer Dinwiddie in the Harden trade? Nope. Levert, Allen as young talent and even Taurean Prince was preferred to match salaries. So understand that somebody like Lauri Markkanen, John Collins or Lonzo Ball is not a worse player than Dinwiddie and they are pieces you can trade for KAT in two years.
I´m hopeful the new GM will think the same way, cause that´s basically how they ALL THINK nowadays.
I mean Chris Paul asked to be traded to the Suns, not to the Mavericks. Why is that? We had the better record. We had all the veterans.
It´s because he saw more potential/talent and a better run team in Phoenix.
